Bioprocessing R&D

Microorganisms & Cells

Research and process development are key elements in the creation of improved, more rapid, and lower-cost methods for producing bio-based products. Working with small volumes saves valuable resources while industry-standard bioprocess systems deliver the precision required to operate under production-like conditions. Advanced software solutions feature real-time process control as well as comprehensive data and information management. The Quality by Design (QbD) approach and statistic tools such as Design of Experiments (DoE) are effective means for a faster development . Single-use bioreactors further improve turn-around times and simplify validation.

»The DASGIP system enables an enormous experimental throughput. It is an important and reliable platform for metabolic engineering in explorative research at Evonik.«

Preculture

Precultures are the link between storage and bioprocessing. The stackable Innova® 44/44R shakers and the New Brunswick S41i CO2 Incubator fulfill all demands of user-friendly and reliable shake-flask cultivation. Its triple-eccentric drive mechanism provides worry-free, 24/7 shaking.

Cultivation & Analysis

The DASbox Mini Bioreactor System is the superior tool for screening under production-like conditions. Additionally, the DASware software solutions enable seamless integration of sampling and analytical devices, and Design of Experiments. Various photometers complement our offerings.

Harvesting & Preparation

The speed adjustment of our electronic pipettes helps to remove the cells very carefully and precise.A variety of different consumables such as the well-known Safe-Lock Tubes or our Conical Tubes (15 mL and 50 mL) can be used for the preparation and/ or sample collection.

Quantification & Evaluation

DASware discover collects and archives bioprocess information like process values and events, recipes as well as analytical information. With the Eppendorf Detection equipment molecular analysis such as nucleic acid and protein quantification, kinetic studies, ELISA, fluorescence or microvolume measurements can be performed. Furthermore, the PlateReader AF2200 is equipped to analyze the status of your cells.

Storage

The New Brunswick freezers meet the highest standards for quality in regard to performance, sample security, and convenience. To concentrate your samples prior to the storage, the Concentrator plus is available as well as different Deepwell plates including sealing options.
